In a few words: The tenant network is the software defined network you can create in the network tab of the horizon dashboard. There could be a couple of them. This is where you connect your instances to.
The logical networks (tenant networks) somehow have to map to the network physics. Therfore there are several virtualization technologies available in Openstack: VLAN, VXLAN, GRE. So a tenant network is an openstack construct that is always (to be more preceise: in most cases) mapped to a virtual network in your physics. When having a look at openstack network charts, the pyhsical network used for tenant networks is the "data network".
